Proactive is drying out my skin!!?!


Question: ive been using proactive for about a month now. my skin use to be oily in the "t zone". and then about 3 weeks into it, my whole face was dry and sort of peeling except my nose. i was wondering what i should do. by the way, i have been using the repair lotion like 5 times a day and the moisturizer twice for the last 3 days. also, proactive did improve my acne greatly so i would like to keep using it.

u cna use cocoa butter creme or some vaseline

Change it then!

Neutragena alpha hydroxy or aloe gel would probably help.
Vitamin E is also good for the skin.

I also use proactive, and that started happening to me too. I started washing my face with proactive only at night. Since then, my face has stayed clear. I think that you should stop using it so often, maybe only once or twice a day. Definitely not 5 times a day- that is what is drying out your skin.
